That would be hilarious if it were only true.Nope. The person that lit the match under Nathan Benjamin's ass has never been named by John Colby or one of his sockpuppets (at least to my knowledge. I don't track such nonsense).I've never heard this person's name mentioned on Topix.But they are truly, the personification of "The Secret Santa".

I find it hilarious when I ask others around town about the homeless advocates and situation here in Santa Cruz. Every single person, from business owners, long time locals (generations of family), to visitors: they all laugh at how ineffective and detrimental the activists are to their own cause. How many years have they lost the battles they wage? How many people have they alienated from the group they claim to represent?

Do they ever mention the loss of civil rights for middle class and housed people as well? The fact that they as a taxpayer cannot venture into pogonip cowells beach, the levee etc etc, linger more than 15 mins a in a parking loT? Corase not they stay teriifed at home and watch the world from their sofa like DBS. F*3k fascism. I go where I want and NODOBY scares or stops me. The homeless re ONLY where the rubber meets the road. We have god given RIGHTS to public assembly and freedom of travel...

your rights are a responsibility, be responsible for yourself, they erode when you blatantly infringe on the public's right to walk through a park because your possessions are there, RESPONSIBILITY, it's a word that has lost its meaning

i've camped out here, been on the streets, and there are ways to protect your possessions (bike locker, locker facilities, friends/family, car). you know as well as i do that if you leave your possessions out there people will steal them. be more afraid of the desperate people then those cleaning up after them

"Citizenship is the common thread that connects all Americans. We are a nation bound not by race or religion, but by the shared values of freedom, liberty, and equality.

Throughout our history, the United States has welcomed newcomers from all over the world. The contributions of immigrants have helped shape and define the country we know today. More than 200 years after our founding, naturalized citizens are still an important part of our democracy. By becoming a U.S. citizen, you too will have a voice in how our nation is governed.

The decision to apply is a significant one. Citizenship offers many benefits and equally important responsibilities. By applying, you are demonstrating your commitment to this country and our form of government.

Below you will find several rights and responsibilities that all citizens should exercise and respect. Some of these responsibilities are legally required of every citizen, but all are important to ensuring that America remains a free and prosperous nation.

Rights

Freedom to express yourself. Freedom to worship as you wish. Right to a prompt, fair trial by jury. Right to vote in elections for public officials. Right to apply for federal employment requiring U.S. citizenship. Right to run for elected office. Freedom to pursue “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.”

Responsibilities

Support and defend the Constitution. Stay informed of the issues affecting your community. Participate in the democratic process. Respect and obey federal, state, and local laws. Respect the rights, beliefs, and opinions of others. Participate in your local community. Pay income and other taxes honestly, and on time, to federal, state, and local authorities. Serve on a jury when called upon. Defend the country if the need should arise."

Fighting for your rights means fighting for your responsibilities, they are part of the same piece of information required of citizenship. While you can go into civil rights, past and recent events, you cannot deny your rights and responsibilities. You have to ask yourself, what are you fighting against? The responsibilities of citizens or the rights?

John Colby endangered several of his so-called "clients" (Steve Lazow and Andrea Morgan) by posting their personal information and pictures on the Internet during the period June through 2 August 2012. In both instances, John posted particularly detailed information about their physical infirmities, health issues, and included several pictures of them on the Internet. In the case of Ms Morgan, twenty-three days after John's post in Indybay, Ms Morgan was robbed.

So, how much did the publishing of Ms. Morgan's health issues, vulnerabilities, and pictures contribute to her becoming a victim of the robbery? How much did the publishing of Ms Morgan's pictures aid the robber in identifying this fragile human being as being a good target for a robbery? John's very quick to remind everyone that he has a PhD in Computer Science and yet even a freshman taking computer science classes knows the dangers of posting personal information on the Internet. As a PhD, John Colby's actions, in that regard, were careless and negligent to the extreme.

John's also careless about posting his own personal information and that of his sister, Pat. Pictures, home address, phone numbers, the list goes on and on. One one occasion, he even posted his credit card number.

--- John the Loon comes across as ignorant (Ummmmm.... Ummmmm.... I don't know.) and is constantly being fed words from his puppet master, Pat/Jabba (I guess we know who wears the pants in that family and it isn't John).

Why would Robert bring the Colbys on the show to talk about a subject that they do not sound very competent in discussing? I can think of two reasons. First, after listening to the Colby toadies, it makes Robert sound all that much more intelligent by comparison. Secondly, it probably was a vanity thing. I'm sure Robert just loved the way John and Pat slobbered over and yielded to his points of view.

That would be hilarious if it were only true.Nope. The person that lit the match under Nathan Benjamin's ass has never been named by John Colby or one of his sockpuppets (at least to my knowledge. I don't track such nonsense).I've never heard this person's name mentioned on Topix.But they are truly, the personification of "The Secret Santa".

I noticed on the council meeting that Comstock left her council seat when Pat C spoke.

Ok, I will take a guess.....

Was it TBSC member DBS???

I heard that DBS tried to say Colby was cooking meth with undercover SCPD offciers on his neighbors patio in Aptos.....

DBS also claims Colby is an undercover cop methcooker who made so much in drug money he bought a luxury hunting cabin.....
